Client Spotlight - Savage Clay
Client spotlights will be a new blog series for Guided Makers. Each post will focus on a company who we worked with to develop their apparel into a production ready product. It is a way for future clients to learn a little about the kinds of projects we have worked on, as well as a way for us continue to support brands as they continue on their journey! This week we have the pleasure of introducing, Savage Clay!

“Savage | Clay is a small batch apparel line with a focus on high quality garments, minimalist designs, clean fabrics, ethical manufacturing practices and sustainability.”
Tamara has an interesting background that brought her to developing an apparel company, as she describes here:
“With over 25 years of experience in the fashion and apparel industries via commercial photography, styling and art direction – we have a unique perspective on apparel and how it fits in the real world, as well as an intimate awareness of the process by which many of these pieces make it to market. These experiences – along with a desire to maintain a clean and healthy lifestyle for ourselves, our families, our customers and a safe, healthy planet – all helped to focus the intention behind the Savage | Clay clothing line.”

Savage Clay has always had clear guidelines established for what kind of brand they will be, read more below:
“We have aimed to create a locally focused, small batch line of elevated, versatile garments that are flattering, comfortable and made to last. Our goal is to create special pieces with beautiful details that are good for the maker, the wearer and the planet. We use organic fabrics whenever possible and follow up on practices from initial concept to finished piece. Our brand strives to always be clean, sustainable, ethical and transparent. Each item is designed in Maine, made in the USA and shipped to you using only environmentally thoughtful materials.
Our approach is not about getting bigger or faster or chasing trends, but about creating pieces that we would buy and wear for years… Effortless pieces with attention to detail and intention in every step of the process.”
